Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Be [Am]careful making wishes
in the dark, dark
[F]Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
And be[Am]sides in the mean-meantime, I'm just
[F]Dreaming of tearing you apart
I'm in the [Am]de-details with the devil
You know,
the [F]world can never get me on my level
I just [Am]gotta get you out the cage,
I'm a young lover's rage
[F]Gonna need a spark to ignite

[Pre-chorus 1]
But my songs [Am]know what you did in the dark

[Chorus 1]
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)

[Verse 2]
Well all the [Am]writers keep
writing what they write
Somewhere an[F]other pretty vein
just died (Died)
I've got the [Am]scars from tomorrow
and I wish you could see
That you're the [F]antidote to everything
except for me
Through a constel[Am]lation of tears
on your lashes
Burn [F]everything you love then burn the ashes
[Am]In the end everything collides, my childhood
[F]Spat back out the monster that you see

[Pre-chorus 2]
My songs [Am]know what you did in the dark

[Chorus 2]
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)

[Bridge 1]
(Left left left right left)
(Left left left right left)
My songs know what you did in the dark
(My songs [Am]know what you did in the dark)

[Chorus 3]
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
So light 'em [Am]up, up, up
Light 'em [F]up, up, up
Light 'em [C]up, up, up I'm on [G]fire
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)
[Am]Whoa-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh-oh, oh-oh-[C]oh-oh-
oh-oh-[G]oh (In the dark, dark)

[Outro 1]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
